Thank you, Ben Martin, Director of Communications and New Media for VAR, for organizing Blogger Connect 2.0!

 Keith Garner, Managing Director, Center for REALTOR® Technology

This past Friday, approximately 30 bloggers from across the state gathered at DARR in Leesburg, VA for a rather mind exploding, animated, and fruitful exchange of ideas. Keith Garner, Managing Director, Center for REALTOR® Technology, joined us for an interactive presentation and lunch. I plan to do an additional post on Keith's information alone. There are a number of techy resources available to us from NAR which are not being used to their full potential.

You may well recognize some of the attendies from The Active Rain Real Estate Network: Brian Block, Frank Llosa, and Danilo Bogdanovic .







Daniel Rothamel, Real Estate Zebra



If you haven't heard of the Real Estate Zebra by now, you'll thank me for introducing you! Daniel brought the technical expertise necessary to broadcast live from the event. With a roomful of writers reluctant to take to the air, he did an amazing job of keeping the show going with an information packed 30 minutes. Jim Duncan, Bob Carney, and Jeff Turner each called in and contributed tremendously to the conversation. To listen to the conversation, follow the path. First, click HERE, then click on the top icon, Audio from Today’s Zebra Talk.

TIP: On air Jeff Turner suggests you get out, meet people, develop relationships, and don't let SEO take over your writing! Use your blog to create conversations with real people in your community. If you have the courage, talk to neighborhood residents when you do your local neighborhood reports. Ask them how they feel about life in their neighborhood. Ask if you can quote them!

See you all in Baltimore, MD for VAR 2008

Yes, the Zebra is a treat.  You can just click on his photo and it should get you there.  What am I saying, you're already gone, I'm sure.  Looking forward to coverage.  Be sure to get active bob on the flip video!

Hey, Paul.  You, too, are a leader!  I learned a ton of information and shared some as well.  I was shocked I had skills to offer.   Blogging  hasn't taken off big time here with the real estate industry in Winchester, but I do hope to help any one who wants to move into it.
